Wait a minute... Are you suggesting someone on the internet lied for attention?! I don't believe it!
I have Italian ancestry and I've always found these guys to be cringe, but I also get why they do it . Many people in the United States yearn for meaning and interpersonal connection in their lives. "Being an Italian" provides a prepackaged, very commercialized possibility of community with little effort required - you're just born to it, so instant acceptance, right?
The reality is often less Soprano's chic and more "nonno and nonnina were illiterate farmhands who moved to the US for a better life. Nonno died from mystery cancer and all of nonnina's bones dissolved after birthing her 15th child at 24. Now chew nonnina's birthday cake for her".
Jamie Dimon is a moronic, completely useless excuse for a human. Maybe he works seven days a week because his overwhelming incompetence means it takes him that long to complete what a competent individual would do in one or two days?
Further evidence of why you use a dedicated alt for anything even vaguely sketch.
I keep all my Google icons quarantined in one folder. Case in point:
Either you're fucking with us or you're one of those people who use commie as a pejorative in ways that don't make sense.
And many of the salsa ladies hate this as they just want to dance and not navigate the minefield of various men trying to hit on or grope them.
People are starving and unhoused and that's exactly why they're focusing on this. To distract people from the source of their actual issues. Bread and circuses.
The pale blue dot photo always makes me tear up. We're so small and insignificant in such a grand universe and I'm crushed that I can't explore it.
Hi! I'm a microbiologist and you have some facts either without useful context or that are just incorrect.
MRSA is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The methicillin resistance is notable as it shows a resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics, which constitutes a large portion of antibiotics in use in medicine.
MRSA is "easy to catch" in that it lives harmlessly on the skin of about 2% of the global population, but MRSA bacteremia, a pathogenic MRSA infection, is actually pretty uncommon, at around 400,000 people a year worldwide, of which around 100k people die. That's nothing. The common cold, the influenza viruses, infect an estimated over 1 billion people annually and kill an estimated 400,000, and they're pretty mild but they're rather infectious.
MRSA is typically easy to treat - that's why about 75% of patients live - with the remainder either having an infection in an unfortunate location, like the blood, immune deficiency, a strain of MRSA that happens to not be susceptible to available antibiotics, or just a lack of prompt treatment.
On the conspiracy bullshit part, I could absolutely give someone MRSA pneumonia, a particularly fatal form of both MRSA infections and pneumonia in general. What could be telling is determining his initial infection. If it was MRSA, sequencing that particular infection (or at least looking for the presence of notable genes using rtPCR) to determine its likely origin could be insightful. Without knowing the identity of his primary infection, though, we're left at guessing.
What IS interesting is that both Boeing whistleblowers have died from relatively uncommon causes, suicide and pneumonia in a healthy individual, in rapid succession. That's one hell of a coincidence.
Fuck Boeing.
I know! I actually squeaked with delight, then felt crushing disappointment, all from one title.
I've been enjoying the coal rolling, Republican Chuds trying to come to grips with their latest thought instructions that some EVs are now good.
